Went to the doctor today...My pulse is 64 and blood pressure 98/ 50. Anyone know anything about these numbers? I forgot to ask my doctor if they were fine lol. I'm sure he would have mentioned them if they were otherwise though

My pulse is usually right at 60.....and I exercise more than anyone I've ever met.
My BP is 115/70 usually.

yeah i dont think pulse is anything to worry about unless its unusually high or low due to weight change.
actually ive heard that EXTREMELY well condition endurance athletes (think bikers) may have higher heartrates than you would think

Lance's is/was in the 30's. He's a genetic freak though.

Got a checkup a few weeks ago.
Pulse: 48
BP: 112/66
OP your BP sounds really low, but I'm sure if there was a problem they would've told you.

pulse: in the mid 50's the last time I checked
bp: 167/82
I think its genetic because i've always had high bp even as a skinny kid.

They want you to shoot for 120/80 or lower now so like someone said the doc would have mentioned something if it was bad. Yours is low because your body is efficently working.Originally Posted by willldabeast
I sit around 50 beats per minute resting with around a 104/70 BP.

120/80 is now generally considered to be pre-hypertensive. 110/70 is closer to normal.

mine is generally pretty low... 100/50 is usually where I am sitting. I know it sounds low, but I have checked it multiple times and it is always in that range. I am going to the doctor tomorrow so I will have it checked again.

That's creepy I actually went today too and got almost the exact same BP (I think mine was like 92/60 or something); the doc said those were great numbers to have so I think unless you're either really huge or really small you're probably pretty healthy (I'm 6'4" 185 for comparison.)Originally Posted by OrlandoMagic20

sorry, i didnt mean all of them, but a professor at my school who does research on VO2 max was saying that some cyclists and endurance athletes have higher heartrates than you would expect.Originally Posted by in10city

The guidelines were recently revised to 110/70. 120/80 is now defined as prehypertension.Originally Posted by willldabeast
